For him, it was like the P-90-X and its founder Tony Horton were speaking directly to him.

The infomercial showed a workout program that touted results in 90 days, results that would transform bodies and lives. Dan ordered it.

"I did it for me because I didn't like the person I had become," he said.

He started his rigorous workouts. His children soon joined. Lusk watched from her wheelchair. Dan kept encouraging her to join.

"Dan was saying, 'Do this, you can do this. Come on, come here -- you can do this,'" Lusk said.

They began working out every day as a family. She gained strength in her arms and then her legs.

They replaced e-mails with healthy shakes, and the weight came off -- 76 pounds within a year.

With the weight loss came a desire to prove her diagnosis wrong. She went from 45 prescriptions to just one.

Lusk spends time out of her wheelchair and is determined to walk again.

"And that is when I knew MS didn't have me anymore, I had me, and I can do this," she said. The disease loosened its grip.

'"We always looked back at the times when we were dating and first married, and those were the best times of our marriage," Dan said. "Not anymore -- every day becomes the best time of our marriage."

The family's story has already inspired hundreds, including the company that produces the P-90-X.

Lusk recently won the company's transformation challenge, and received $25,000.

Carl Daikeler, the CEO of BeachBody, sent this statement to KETV NewsWatch 7:

"When we created P90X, Shakeology and our Beachbody distributor network, I would not have guessed a woman in Cammie's condition would inspire people so deeply. More than the person who lost 100 pounds or the guy who looks like a body builder, Cammie demonstrates that anyone with the right tools and the right attitude can achieve amazing things. She inspires me."
